Setting Up Process Plans

To set up a process plan that will enable the customer to output a file from Prinergy to the imagesetter's RIP, follow the procedure below:

1. In Prinergy, open the Process Plan Editor.

2. In the Output To: field, select the output type, usually DCS Raster (Low resolution).

3. In the Render section:

• JTP field: select the high-resolution proofing JTP for the customer's 512 MB proofing device.
• Resolution X and Resolution Y fields: select the dpi. Set the resolution to the resolution of the output device.

4. In the Device section:

• Device Path field: enter the device path to the hot folder on the imagesetter's RIP.
• DCS File Format field: select DCS2 Multiple Files.
• DCS Compression field: select CCITTG4.
• You can also choose to send a mirrored or negative image to the imagesetter's RIP by checking the Mirror Print box or the Negative Print box.
  Normally, these boxes remain unchecked; when the customer wishes to create a mirrored or negative print, rather than selecting Mirror Print or Negative Print, the positive output file can instead be sent to a hot folder on the imagesetter's RIP that is set up to create a mirrored or negative print.

5. Use the default settings for the fields in the remaining sections, including Layout, ColorConvert, and so on.
